And this here's the TV. Two hours a day, either educational or football, so you don't ruin your appreciation of the finer things.

I wandered off from my desk today and went to the school library...I often do this, mostly to avoid work, and because I like to read...

I was lazily skimming the book titles, when a collection of 'Will Roger's Daily Telegraphs' caught my eye. I have always heard of Will Rogers, and I knew he had been described as a "humorist", but I had never really read anything he wrote.

The book appeared to be a collection of daily telegrams he had sent to America while he was in Europe in the 1920's...I read a few of them, and chuckled at a few obscure or dated phrases he would use, and after a while I realized that Will Rogers was really funny...He was talking about events and fads (such as swimming the english channel, a craze that apparently swept the globe at one point) that took place some 60+ years before I was born, but it didn't really matter because of his humorous writing style...He would write things like how he had been thrown out of a cricket match for applauding and being a "boisterous element"...

It's hard to describe, but it was funny...

I'm going to have to sneak off tomorrow and read some more...
